The kit comes with everything you need to create a beautiful replica of the Great Lakes Boat Freighter. The attention to detail on this model is impeccable, making it a great addition to any collection. This is a very rare model, I have only seen one other. The model was never built. It is still in its original packaging. The hull is made of carved wood. The box is approximately 45 inches long. So it is a very large model. The kit was originally made in Michigan. The set includes a boat and all the necessary pieces to assemble it. The theme is perfect for those interested in nautical history or Ford auto history. Let me know if you have any questions.

Please Save a Life Today – Adopt a Shelter Pet. SS John Ericsson Whaleback Great Lakes Freighter. Never before available in 1/350 scale. Will require skills with Superglue, Soldering Gun, sanding, painting, PE brass & probably some putty work. Made in the USA. Some Custom Work may be required. The John Ericsson was a whaleback Great Lakes freighter designed by Captain A. McDougall and built-in Superior, Wisconsin in 1896. It was named after a friend of Captain McDougall’s who was the inventor of the first screw propeller. Its hull looks somewhat like a submarine and was designed so that the decks would be awash in rough seas. The John Ericsson was 396′ long with a 48′ beam and a draft of 21′. It displaced 3200 tons. This is a poured resin hull in 1 piece, solid resin. Thereby the bottom or keel may be a bit rough and may require some extra attention and work. It’s not a defect, it’s how the kit is and the only way to guarantee a clean appearance and fit for the upper half of the kit. Because these kits are handmade, they may require the molds to be recast at times. This item is in the category “Toys & Hobbies\Models & Kits\Boats & Ships”. The seller is “3wieds” and is located in this country: US.
